Trayvon Martin’s Autopsy Revealed Injuries to His Knuckles — Potentially Supporting Zimmerman’s Defense

The autopsy on Trayvon Martin revealed injuries to his knuckles, a potential boon to George Zimmerman’s claim that he shot the unarmed Florida teen in self-defense.
Orlando’s WFTV-TV confirmed Tuesday the autopsy results on Martin showed the skin on his knuckles was broken — details that comes alongside a new medical report that said Zimmerman had two black eyes, a nose fracture and cuts to the back of his head after the altercation.
“It goes along with Zimmerman’s story that he acted in self-defense, because he was getting beaten up by Trayvon Martin,” WFTV legal analyst Bill Sheaffer told the station.
Zimmerman attorney Mark O’Mara declined to comment to WFTV about the autopsy evidence.
Zimmerman has said that before he shot and killed Martin, the 17-year-old punched him and broke his nose and knocked him to the ground.
The broken skin on his knuckles and the fatal gunshot wound were the only injuries the autopsy report showed.
Still, Sheaffer said there could be another potential explanation: “It could be consistent with Trayvon either trying to get away or defend himself.”
Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder in Martin’s death.

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 11:21amPersonally, I have a hard time seeing how Martin could have been acting in self-defense if he had no injury other than the knuckles and the gunshot. If he’d been bruised at least there might be reasonable doubt but the autopsy revealed no other injuries.

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 2:14pmIf you have a hard time seeing it, all you have to do is put yourself in his place: it was a rainy evening; you are walking through a strange neighborhood; you notice a strange, large man is following you; you are speaking with your girlfriend on the phone, and she recommends that you run away, which is what you decide to do; even though you are running away, the stranger runs after you; at one point, he stops and is talking on the phone … he pauses and turns. Who is he talking to? What are they planning? You begin to panic. QUICK: WHAT DO YOU DO? Some of us would have continued running, and perhaps called 911 along the way. But remember: you are a 17 year old male, an age group that is not known for reacting with logic and instead relying on impulsiveness … so you decide to pre-emptively attack the man who is following you.
It was all just a horrible misunderstanding that resulted in the loss of an innocent life. But it could have been prevented if Zimmerman had merely called 911 and not provoked Martin to fear by following him.

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 3:33pmWow Suzanne, where do you get your facts from? I have no doubt that Martin was probably ill-advisedly followed, and maybe he even felt threatened by Zimmerman. Even if you want to try to make the case that given this was justification for tackling Zimmerman and thrashing him, it still doesn’t make Zimmerman a murderer.
Creating supposed facts will not get to the truth and they can be dangerous because some people believe everything they read and don’t know that you are either ill-informed speculating or just making it up to fit your conclusion.

Report Post »Zimmerman was on the Phone with 911. I think you may be mixing up the two. Wasn’t Martin also really tall. How many 6′3″ Hispanic/americans have you seen? Just saying get your facts straight. It was Zimmerman who called 911 telling them he was following. Then Martin Dissapears supposedly. The next thing you see is someone 6′ 3″ Martin fists punching your face. The next thing he’s on top of you slamming your head into the sidewalk. I‘m not sure but I’d probably have done the same thing if someone was punching me and slamming my head on the sidewalk. But the one thing I wouldn’t have done is follow the person. Lets say Zimmerman didn’t have a gun and was just walking home behind someone. That person runs around the building and the next thing punches you in the face and starts slamming your head on the cement. What would you do if you had a gun, and didn’t have one? What? I know if it was me I’d probably use it. So is it self defense? Didn’t Zimmerman try to go back to his truck? Before I’d fine this man guilty, I would want to know the facts! Blood splatter, how close he was to his vehicle. The path where Martin disappeared and reappeared. How many times did I hear on other News Stations that people said Martin had no injuries, and zimmerman had no injuries. Who was it that was saying Martin didn’t have any injuries on his hands? Well Now we know the truth. Next day you go to a family doctor. PTSD, he refers Ears Nose Throat doctor. Not Vise

Report Post »A much bigger man? You gotta remember one thing… those pics the media keep showing of trayvon are from back when he was 12 an 13 years old… Trayvon had grown up and at the time of his encounter with Zimmerman stood at 6 foot 4 inches tall…. Trayvon was the larger man in this altercation.
Also, he wasn’t running away. He specifically told his girlfriend, No, he wouldn’t run.
The media is manipulating this story to make Trayvon look like a cute little innocent kid with candy… Fact is he was a big black dude wandering around a neighborhood late at night for who knows what reason… And this big dude tore up his knuckles on Zimmerman’s face…. managed to give Zimmerman two black eyes, a broken nose, and a head bashed repeatedly into the concrete… Those are not the defensive actions of a scared boy…

Posted on May 21, 2012 at 2:30pmIf there is anything we can learn from this tragedy is that: Neighborhood Watch participants should always have some kind of clear and well-seen identification on their car or on their person while patroling a neighborhood. Did Zimmerman have anything to signify that he was a neighborhood watch participant. Maybe it would have changed the dynamic. I believe what happened was that Trayvon Martin was freaked out ( it is possible he was stoned which can heighten a sense of fear because he had mariquana in his system), so while Zimmerman was on the phone with cops, Martin hid behind something, and so when Zimmerman got out of the car to look for him, Martin assumed he was being targeted so he jumped Zimmerman. So the second thing we learn from this tragedy is that violence is never a way to settle a dispute or perceived danger unless you have all the facts. If Martin had simply asked Zimmerman what he wanted, Zimmerman would have told him that he was part of the neighborhood patrol, Martin would have explained that he was in the neighborhood to visit his father, and it would have ended there. A tragic event that deserves to have something good come from it.

”
A medical report compiled by the family physician of accused Trayvon Martin murderer George Zimmerman and obtained exclusively by ABC News found that Zimmerman was diagnosed with a “closed fracture” of his nose, a pair of black eyes, two lacerations to the back of his head and a minor back injury the day after he fatally shot Martin during an alleged altercation.”

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 1:15pmStill, Sheaffer said there could be another potential explanation: “It could be consistent with Trayvon either trying to get away or defend himself.” Ah yes let’s make sure to bury this comment at the end of the report. No one ever said the Kid Martin didn’t try to defend himself against the adult Zimmerman. The question is why Zimmerman left his car and how he confronted a kid. You can’t claim self defense or stand your ground within a conflict you initiated. If Zimmerman did get the crap kicked out of him by a kid who weighed 70 lbs. less than I guess he really did need a gun. Shooting a kid because he punched you is not a reasonable action. Zimmerman‘s lawyer’s attempt to have him look smaller by loosing weight will hopefully not fool the jury, once they are reminded of a situation where an adult followed, confronted, fought with, shot and killed a kid who was minding his own business. But of course wearing a hoody and packing skittles is clearly a threat to Zimmerman and the community.

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 2:37pmWow, Jrook, it’s clear you memorized your talking points before you clicked over from HuffPo.
If we’re going to pursue a line of pure speculation, which is exactly what you’re doing here, let’s look at the other alternative, equally as likely: Trayvon was walking through the neighborhood, a neighborhood his father did not live in, because he was casing houses for burglary. Trayvon had already burglarized several homes in the area. He was a felon, and when asked what he was doing in the neighborhood, he engaged in felonious assault. It was when he tried to take GZ’s gun that it escalated to a life in death situation. In the end, the thug assaulted the wrong guy.
Just as likely a story as your tripe.

Posted on May 17, 2012 at 6:42amI don’t care if I am 23 (Zimmerman) if I’m only 5 ft 10, I am not going to confront anyone who is over 6 ft. Treyvon is not some sweet little kid. He’s a lot taller. Zimmerman’s problem is he thought it would only be words. He wasn’t prepared for some macho young man who thought he was bullet proof and decided to whoop a$$ on someone who dared to ask him what he was doing. And Zimmerman doesn’t even look white. This was all to fan the flames of racism and nothing more. Reverse the rolls, and have a 17 year old white boy who is over 6 ft tall, and a black man who is 5 ft 10 and I’d feel the same way. Problem is, if it had been reversed it never would have made the news.

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 2:39pmFirst thing, above all I am here to survive people. With that being said I am thinking given the extent of the injuries sustained by Zimmerman If it was me I would have shot him. Im sorry, what ever happened to respecting an adult hmm? You can call it race related all you want get offended. Matters not. I would have shot him with out a second thought. Don’t bring knuckles to a gun fight. Oh I know right. So inhumane. Look at how many other races are violated by blacks on a daily basis. But a hispanic man protects himself and this is what happens. I mean really? This is natural selection at its best. If you don’t want to be shot while victimizing someone maybe just maybe you should have kept yourself at home. Im sorry his parents raised a child with out any common sense. Clearly he fits with his outwardly appearance. A child died yes. I am so sick of things being one sided in this country. Get over your race issues people, doesn’t matter race, age, or sex. If one fears for his life no matter the conflict. that person should be allowed to protect himself. How do you think a hispanic male could have sustained all that damage? Falling out of bed? Oh but wait if Zimmerman had not protected himself and Martin and beaten him to death.Then what? Would all the blacks still claim race? Act like a thug, go down like one. A bounty on his head from the panthers? Again really? What about the clubs in hand at the voting boxes? Kid got what he deserved imo. You Never know who is pack

Posted on May 16, 2012 at 11:04amWhat should be revealing to anyone that goes to another site that’s reporting on this such as a WCBS site, the comments are overwhelming against Zimmerman, and are vehement. It really shows how effective brainwashing can be. I mean, it’s perfectly already for someone to sit back and wait to see and hear the evidence when a case comes to trial, that’s fair. It’s also understandable for someone to form an opinion based on facts, even distorted facts such as the media usually presents. However, to now be presented with news that Zimmerman had two black eyes, a broken nose, etc. while an autopsy shows Martin had bruised, skin-broken knuckles, and still believe what has previously been fed truly shows the effects of brainwashing, which the media is doing on a daily basis. As soon as the November elections are over, congress should hold hearings on this conspiracy of the media against We The People.

Im sick of paying for these pathetic people (all races included) to spit in the faces of the people who pay for their lazy asses to sit at home and reproduce or to jump the boarder and refuse to speak the lang. No wait America lets just let them bite the !@#$ that feeds them and say thank you for it….Oh no wait I forgot. I’m supposed to have compassion for these pieces of !@#$ the hole time I’m going hungry to ensure my offspring do not and I work 16 hours a day. Then they cry racial intolerance when they are too damn lazy to help themselves. This is why Martin thought he could get away with beating someone trying to protect his home and the homes of others. Usually when someone appears to be doing something suspicious they usually are up to no good. It’s not racial profiling its common sense. Oh wait theres that word again Oh no. Let nothing but the fear of the unknown stop ya.Is the truth here. Martin didn’t think it through and got shot for it . Good rittance I say. That’s what happens when you raise an idiot. Common sense people Common sen
